Simplified Meaning:
It's more valuable to have a small amount of something good and earned fairly than to have a lot obtained through wrong actions. Imagine a student who studies hard and learns, even if their grades are not the best but they are honest and try their best. This is better than someone who cheats to get top marks. In the long run, the honest student learns important lessons and can be proud of their hard work. On the other hand, the one who cheats or lies might get high grades, but they miss out on real learning and face problems later when their dishonesty comes to light. Applying this to life, it’s crucial to focus on doing what’s right, even if it means getting less. This way, one builds trust, self-respect, and long-term success.
